Today's ebay purchase

[Hiroe]

Old sign from Suburban Station.
Seller accepted an offer of $165.
Picked it up in-person and paid cash, saved on shipping.

There are at least three prior legends on each side, that have been painted over for the current ones.
"Media - Elwyn Local"
"Express to Secane then Local to Media"
"This train will be placed about"

Wow, that’s an awesome find!  Do you have any idea when this would have been used?

I couldn't give you exact years, but they were replaced in early Septa era, and would have been gone by the time the commuter tunnel got built.

That’s neat.  Looks like the sign has some older, painted over lettering.  Is any of it readable?
